Fulham – Hodgson in Verbal Spat!

Those perennial moaners, over at Upton Park, seem to have gotten (Sir) Roy Hodgson`s back seriously up.

With the relegation bound (we hope) East London club still harping on about the weakened side (Sir) Roy chose to field at the KC Stadium last Saturday and now looking as if their threat to issue a complaint is going to become a reality , (Sir) Roy has hit back, remarking,

“I don`t think West Ham should be picking our team. If there is a complaint my conscience is perfectly clear and we don`t have a case to answer.”

“We chose a team including a player just sold for £10 million, a South African international and Clint Dempsey who is a USA international. I can`t understand why you can`t change things.”

“I can`t imagine anyone ever questioning Chelsea, Liverpool or Manchester United for using the players they have in their squad.”

“I have a good squad and there are lots of players I can use.”

Whatever next I cry! Like we`ve said previously, West Ham should take a close look at their own inept performances if / when they go down, not clutch at straws!
